Cancun Area Expects More Than 1.5M Tourists By The End Of 2023
The Ministry of Tourism announced that by the end of 2023, 25 national airlines, 15 Canadian, 17 European, and 40 American, will be flying to Cancun.
According to estimates by the State Tourism Secretariat, around 1.5 million tourists will arrive in Quintana Roo by the end of 2023.
The agency highlighted that American Airlines will consolidate Cancun as its main international destination during winter, as since December 9 of last year, the airline has launched new nonstop flights from Cincinnati, Nashville, Tennessee, and Pittsburgh.
With these additions, American Airlines will operate 18 flights to Cancun, totaling 40 daily flights from the United States during the peak winter season.
According to Bernardo Cueto Riestra, 7 million airline seats are scheduled in the Mexican Caribbean between December 1, 2023, and March 31, 2024, not including the new flights from Tulum Airport. This corresponds to a total of 36,000 flights at the three international airports in the region.
In addition to this, American Airlines has announced that it will operate six flights to Cozumel on peak days. Starting March 28, there will be four daily nonstop flights to the new Felipe Carrillo Puerto Tulum International Airport.
Hoteliers in Cancun, Puerto Morelos, and Isla Mujeres have expressed optimism about the winter season. They expect an economic turnover of 2,000 million dollars and a hotel occupancy rate of more than 85 percent.
With a supply of 54,600 hotel rooms and a cumulative occupancy rate of between 72 and 84 percent, these destinations in the Mexican Caribbean are expecting an upswing starting in the third week of December and possibly extending into January.
